Overview

The wholesale trade industry is a sector of the economy that involves the purchase and sale of goods and products in large quantities, typically to retailers, businesses, and other institutions rather than individual consumers. It serves as an intermediary step in the distribution chain, bridging the gap between manufacturers or producers and the end consumers.

Depending on specific features and functions, GAO Tek’s carbon dioxide (CO2) are sometimes referred to as Carbonic Acid Gas, Carbonic Anhydride, Carbon(IV) Oxide, Dry Ice, Carbon Dioxide Gas, CO2.

GAO Tek’s carbon dioxide (CO2) have the following applications in wholesale trade industry:

  • Refrigeration and Cooling: GAO Tek’s CO2 is commonly used as a refrigerant in refrigeration systems. It plays a crucial role in the preservation of perishable goods, such as frozen foods and beverages, during storage and transportation. Wholesale distributors of food and beverages often rely on CO2 for temperature control.
  • Dry Ice Production: Wholesale trade businesses that need to maintain low temperatures often use our dry ice (solid CO2) for cooling purposes. Our dry ice is particularly useful for shipping temperature-sensitive goods, such as medical supplies, vaccines, and frozen foods.
  • Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP): In the wholesale trade of fresh produce, GAO’s CO2 is sometimes used as part of modified atmosphere packaging. It helps extend the shelf life of fruits, vegetables, and other perishables by regulating the composition of gases inside the packaging.
  • Carbonation of Beverages: Wholesale distributors of carbonated beverages use our CO2 to carbonate soft drinks, beer, and other beverages. CO2 is injected into the liquid to create the characteristic effervescence.
  • Welding and Industrial Processes: GAO Tek’s CO2 is used as a shielding gas in welding processes, such as MIG (Metal Inert Gas) welding. Wholesale suppliers of industrial equipment and materials may provide CO2 cylinders and tanks for welding purposes.
  • Fire Suppression Systems: Some warehouses and storage facilities use our CO2-based fire suppression systems to protect goods from fire-related damage. These systems release CO2 to displace oxygen, effectively extinguishing the fire without causing water or chemical damage to the stored products.
  • Carbonated Ice Production: Ice wholesalers may our use CO2 to produce carbonated ice, which is used in food and beverage service industries for chilling and carbonating drinks.
  • pH Regulation: Wholesale distributors of chemicals and water treatment solutions may provide our CO2 cylinders for use in pH regulation in various industrial processes, such as wastewater treatment and swimming pool maintenance.
  • Oil and Gas Industry: In the wholesale trade of oil and gas equipment and supplies, GAO Tek’s CO2 can be used in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) processes to increase the yield of oil from reservoirs.
  • Environmental Control: In greenhouses and agricultural settings, GAO Tek’s CO2 can be introduced to enhance plant growth through a process known as carbon dioxide enrichment.
